[CMake] Trigger a build with CMake

[Leif Walsh]

cmake --build /path/to/build/dir [--target <target name>]

I usually go to the build directory and type `cmake --build .`  You can
pass extra options to the underlying build system by adding `--`
afterwards, so if you are using, for example, the Makefile generator, you
can build in parallel with `cmake --build . -- -j5`
